Fenomenofonen: En undersökning om ljud på webben
Blekinge Institute of Technology.
2015 (Swedish)Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 20 credits / 30 HE creditsStudent thesis
Abstract [sv]

Ljud har en förmåga att påverka våra känslor. Begreppet ljudwebb är framtaget till denna undersökning och syftar på de ljudlagda applikationer som, i och med den tekniska utvecklingen, har börjat dyka upp inom webben. Ljudwebben har fått sitt namn från ljudfilmen, de filmer som började experimentera med ljud under filmindustrins tekniska revolution runt 1930-talet. Syftet med denna undersökning är att utforska vad ljudets känslopåverkande egenskaper kan bidra med inom webben. Genom att utgå från fysiker-filosofen Karen Barads tankar om det ständigt rekonstruerande fenomenet samt filosofen Sarah Ahmeds kritik mot den fenomenologiska orienteringen lyder undersökningens frågeställning. “Hur kan fenomenet ljudwebb gestalta tillstånden orientering och desorientering?

De insikter som uppkom under undersökningens teoretiska fördjupning har resulterat i den webb-baserade ljudinstallationen Fenomenofonen. Utöver ljudatmosfärer gestaltar Fenomenofonen intra-aktion, orientering och desorientering. Undersökningen bevisar att ljud kan användas som verktyg inom webbproduktion för att påverka användarens känslor. I och med marknadens efterfrågan på sinnesupplevelser inom webben kommer ljudwebben med stor sannolikhet att fortsätta expandera. Det kommer att leda till ett ännu mer påfrestat ljudlandskap, men även en rikare kultur och många arbetsmöjligheter för ljud-designers, programmerare och kompositörer. 

Abstract [en]

Sound has a strong potential to influence our feelings. The concept of sound-web is developed for this study and refers to the sound-designed applications which have started to appear at the web due to new technological possibilities. Its name is inspired by the concept of sound film, the category of movies that began experimenting with sound, due to their technical film revolution back around the 1930´s. The purpose of this study is to explore what sound, with its possiblility to affect human emotions, can contribute within the web. This investigations survey question was produced by applying theories from physicist-philosophist Karen Barad's thoughts about the constantly reconstructive phenomenon and from the philosopher Sarah Ahmed's criticism of the phenomenological orientation and is as follows: How can the phenomenon of sound-web produce orientation and disorientation?.

The insights that arose during the theoretical investigation resulted in a web-based sound installation named the Phenomenophone. In addition to generate sound atmospheres, the Phenomenophone, produces intra-action, orientation and disorientation in a way that make these specific subjects more understandable in a psycological way. The survey proves that the sound can be used as a tool in web production to affect the users feelings. The sound-web will most probably expand even more in the future. It will lead to a more contaminated soundscape but a richer cultural environment and many job opportunities for sound-designers, programmers and composers.
